Helldivers One Year Anniversary Quiz – Winners and Answers!

A big thank you to everyone who took part in our big Helldivers One Year Anniversary Giveaway last week.

In our final hardcore quiz we have received over 50 entries – definitely more than we expected – so next year we will have to make the quiz much harder! In total there were only 6 entrants who were completely correct across all five questions.

Congratulations to both cape winners:

And because it seems petty to not give out a prize to the last entrant with correct answers, a pack also goes out to Captqueso who entered on 3/8/2016 at 23:58:44.

We will be sending out emails to you all.

We’ve listed all the questions and answers below for anyone who is interested in checking them out or to see where they went wrong!

The year Helldivers plays out, together with some comments made by the soldiers on the bridge, reference a book – What book?19 people correctly identified George Orwell’s book, 1984.

The trophy “Make Frank kill a Tank” is a reference to an old movie quote, but it is also a reference to something else – What?Make Frank Kill A Tank is also reference to a Penny Arcade strip made after the release of Helldivers. They named the shuttle pilot Frank. Just under half of the participants, 24 in total, got this right!

The soldiers on the bridge reference a comedic sketch about skulls – What sketch?A whopping 46 people correctly identified the soldiers on the bridge reference the sketch from Mitchell and Webb called “Are we the Baddies?”

With the Stratagem ‘Shredder’ Missile Strike is also a reference to be found – Which?42 people recognised that The Shredder “Tracking Micro-Nuclear Tactical” missile is a large reference to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

From the other giveaways during the week we had some great motivations for player’s favourite Weapons and Stratagems that deserves honorable mentions:

Is that the name in the email address you used? Because we don’t have any submitted by that name :)

dalivus@gmail.com was mine. Malefic_titan is the other guys user name/PSNID so I don’t know what his email is. I did resubmit mine when I discovered that one of my original answers was incorrect but, no kidding, those answers were exactly what I turned in. Maybe I didn’t make the top 5 in time, but I definitely submitted those answers.
